Mountaineer Park Race 2 - Race 2 - Claiming
HOLY SAINT (2) comes here off a break of five months. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 1207m at this track. Lines up today for the first time for trainer Shane M Spiess. Expect him to play a major role. CAJUN HOPE (4) is resuming from a spell of a year and having his first run for the Julie Stansbury yard. Was in the placings when first-up from a spell last campaign at this track (Dirt) over 905m. Rates highly and makes plenty of appeal. LOST IN MANHATTAN (3) returns after a spell of four months. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 1006m at this track. Among the better hopes. SMART COVERAGE (6) resumes today after filling a minor placing at his only appearance last prep at this track (Dirt) over 402m on December 1. Has a terrific record here with two wins and two minor placings from four starts. Must be respected.
